Flying the Coop


It's been a wild course of events recently.  #2 has accepted the response from the University of Washington Law School and will be starting in Sept.  He is moving up next month to Seattle and his mom is not happy.   The fear is that he will not be coming back to Southern Cal for years to come.  He is the one who has been helping out in her classroom each day, and kept her sane.

He got an assortment of acceptances, wait listed and rejections.  Some of the choices were tempting in that they were offering some generous financial packages.  He went though a process where he flew out to Chicago where he found out that he was the diversity of the incoming classes at both Law Schools.  His trip to Seattle was more to his liking in comparison.  He did like the city of Chicago and has a college room mate attending med school at one of the offering universities.

In the end, UW won out due to it's ranking and financial package offered.  He is officially a Husky.  He does have a roommate from college living up there working for Amazon, his aunt (my sister) and uncle as well as his cousin  and wife if he ever gets lonely or hungry.

We will see how a southern Cal boy will adjust to the weather and lifestyle of the Northwest.
